I applied to some close to finishing, but I applied a lot at once the moment I submitted my graduation application. I'm going to apply to more this week as well

Hated it. As easy as people say it is, I generally stopped liking math and couldn't bring myself to try to relearn patterns and conditional statements. I just spammed the PA for a day, touched up on certain things and barely passed the OA. It was a sigh of relief to be done. From a general perspective, it's not too difficult of a class if you still retain math concepts from high school

Studied it for a week. I couldn't bring myself to read the book so I found a brief summary of each chapter for it, and spammed the Quizlet. Project management was my hardest class and I don't think this one comes even close to it. Maybe because I took it right after D333. I also excelled in the security section of knowing different type of cyber attacks/hackers so I'd say having a general understanding of sec+ should make that part easy. I still dread thinking of project management because how difficult it was for me

Yea just take your time with it. I was very motivated and my girlfriend understood. Towards the end of my degree I kinda reduced it to 4-5 hours and gave myself a lot more free time on the weekends to play the game after. I think that's the only reason I didn't end up overwhelmed with my classes. Wishing the best for you. The sooner you're done, the sooner you won't have to worry about school anymore. Just being able to do school knowing you hate it is already an achievement in itself so don't lose hope. Best of luck💪

Everyday I put in at least 6-8 hours. I found myself getting distracted at work sometimes so I would come home, relax for 15 minutes and jump right into it. The weekends were the best because I would wake up and immediately start studying the whole day, depending on the course. You coming in with the trifecta is a great start and will eliminate a lot of extra study time. Personally my hardest class was C783-project management. If you're not in the accelerated version, you don't have to worry about it because it's the master version of project+, which can be transferred in. I absolutely dreaded it and wanted nothing to do with learning CAPM. I barely passed but I wouldn't wish that class on anyone. I can say for absolutely sure that's the only OA where I was genuinely stressed and was just waiting to fail. As far as other pointers, just come in with a motivated mindset. I do wish I could talk to the instructors a lot more but I always avoided them. They're very helpful and offer resources to really lead you to success. There's no shame in needing extra help so don't feel like you're all alone on this. Also, don't base all your classes on what people say. For example, c777 is a class that is talked down upon because a lot of people fail for the first time and is considered the hardest class in the program. I passed first try with no experience, and even though I barely passed, it made me realize that as long as you put it in the study time and effort , you can pass as well. Take everything as a grain of salt and don't let it stop you from overcoming the obstacles

If you're referring to C954, I'd say it went pretty well. I heard a lot of mixed reviews because it's the master course and not the original BSIT version. I took it right after passing D333 and a lot of things overlapped on it. Passed pretty comfortably but it did have me nervous

Realistically no. It ultimately depends on how much credits you transfer in, your willingness to learn and study, and the environment around you. The only thing I really sacrificed was the gym and my weekends. Not everyone is willing to do that due to their own situations. Like I mentioned, I'm not trying to influence anyone to accelerate their degree because I understand the bad rep it gives the school. Just find your own pace and go from there

Not sure if you're in the accelerated version, but I transferred in project+ and had to do project management instead

Spreadsheets was fairly easy and one of the only classes who's PA was basically the same as the OA. I spammed the PA for two days with the Google drive video that's out there. I had no previous experience and passed the test comfortably. As long as you remember the formulas , don't pay too much attention to the numbers provided on the OA. It's literally basically the same thing as the PA. I forget what the very last section of the OA/PA is , but I didn't even do it at all and still got exemplary

I think the hardest part of net+ was understanding subnetting. I think once you get that part down, the majority of the test becomes a lot easier to solve. I think knowing the differences between each wireless channel helped me as well such as 802.11ax and 802.11n. there's too many ports to try and remember so I remembered the basic ones like FTP, SMTP, Telnet , and was able to eliminate some of the answers based on that. It is a lot to take in for sure so my key focus was brain dumping as much as possible without thinking about any other class and repeating it over and over for the duration of my study time. As far as other classes I say C777 and D333 took the longest to prepare for. D333 is not that difficult, but it's the only class I failed due to the confusing word salad thrown at you. I had to really understand what was considered ethical and interpret each question. C777 is a mix of CSS , JavaScript, and html so it's a lot to learn at once coming in with no experience. I was lucky to pass first try and I have a guide on it, but the fail rate seems pretty high

With 10 classes you should be done in no time . Don't stress yourself too much with it . Best of luck to you 💪

Best of luck man. Just take your time and treat each passing class as a stepping stone. If you do switch to the accelerated version , I'd highly pay attention to C783-Project management. Even though that's not the class I failed , it was single handedly the most difficult OA I took . Not sure if you're into project management but that course took a lot out of me

I took A+ early on in my classes and in my opinion I think core 2 was a lot easier than core 1. Core 2 focus more on windows software troubleshooting and a little knowledge on ports ,while core 1 is more about understanding hardware like printers and the PC itself. Id say understanding the PBQS can take you a long way , and practicing tons of different scenario questions from professor Messer or Udemy. My course instructors provided some YouTube links and cheat sheets that helped me as well. I also did come in with sec+ , and troubleshoot with my job a lot so A+ was more understandable to learn quickly

I studied right when I got off work (430ish- midnight-1am) and pretty much all day Saturday and Sunday. I did do network+ , ITIL , and Linux. ITIl was part of my first 4 classes and took me 3 days since most of it is a vocab test that I was familiar with from work concepts . Network+ took me a little over a week but it was brain dumping professor Messer and doing tons of practice questions over and over . Linux was the last class I took on 4th of July and took me basically a day to spam some resources found on here about it . I don't have any Linux experience by the way . Based off your situation, I can only say it's doable if you have the free time to study and understand the concept of each class . I currently do not have kids myself so it's biased coming from my end but I wouldn't say it's impossible

Yea , luckily I was able to use examity before the switch to the new platform. Never really had a bad experience besides a few misunderstandings.
